!! IMPORTANT: Your new Apple IIe Card can provide the functions of almost

all the standard Apple IIe accessory cards. Unfortunately, there are a few

specialized accessory cards that it cannot replace. If you have an accessory

card not mentioned in this section or listed in this table, you won't be able

to install it in the Macintosh LC. !!

4. Fill in empty slots with any unused Option Panel cards you think might be

useful.

Unlike the accessory cards for your original Apple IIe, the Option Panel

can. Use this chart to decide which Option Panel cards would be the most

useful; use your Apple IIe program manuals to decide which slots to put them

in.
